Correct measurement
Once you have decided on the style and on the required object, it’s time for you to start measuring and cutting out the ribbon. The standard measurement for a small bow is around three inches and more for larger bows.

Pull both sides of the ribbon and pull the right side under the left to make a tight knot.

Now if you want your bows to look more beautiful, put in some glitter, decorate it with some smaller ribbons and give it a really beautiful shape.
